Comment (by mf2k):
Any progress?
In response about the name of the port. I still believe it should simply
be called "eric" and track the latest version. We only ever put the
version number in a port name when we intend to keep multiple versions
around for compatibility reasons - e.g. gcc6, gcc7, etc. I see no need to
do that here. If/when it moves to version 7, we would have to add/change
the port name and that only makes things more difficult for users when
updating. Unless I'm missing something?
